[comp.sys.ibm.pc.rt] ibm3151 terminal on RT

psiders@umn-d-ub.D.UMN.EDU (Paul Siders) (06/01/90)

    I'm using an IBM 3151 terminal on an RT, running AIX 2.2.1, "update" 2705.
The terminal is on a serial port, and $TERM=ibm3151. (rts=19200, no parity,8,1)
I have trouble with tabs on the 3151.  If I cat to the screen a file that 
contains a tab, or if I hit the tab key, the cursor jumps to the top left
of the 3151's screen.  I don't know how to fix this.  Will someone please
tell me where to look?  I do have the files /usr/lib/terminfo/i/ibm3151 and
/usr/lib/terminfo/i/ibm3151.U but don't know what to do with them.
    THANKS!
